Maintenance Manager

International Delights is building a world-class, multi-asset maintenance program across our production, facilities, and fleet operations. We are looking for a Maintenance Manager to own the site’s maintenance performance end-to-end — leading Team Leaders and technicians, and driving the transition from a reactive to a proactive, planned and predictive maintenance culture.

This role is the accountable owner of the site’s core maintenance KPIs — safety, downtime, MTTR, MTBF, PM compliance, and cost — and reports directly to the Director of Maintenance and Engineering as a key partner in executing the 24‑month reliability roadmap. It is a visible, high-impact position with a clear development path toward Director-level responsibility.

• Own the site’s maintenance KPI scorecard — safety incidents, unplanned downtime, MTTR, MTBF, PM compliance, backlog, and maintenance cost — setting targets, driving corrective action when metrics miss, and reporting performance to plant and maintenance leadership on a regular cadence
• Own day-to-day maintenance of all bakery production lines — mixing, makeup, proofing, ovens, cooling, lamination, and packaging — so scheduled production is delivered at target throughput, yield, and food-safety standards
• Analyze downtime, failure, and CMMS data to identify systemic reliability issues and sponsor root cause and corrective action initiatives
• Partner with the Maintenance Planner and reliability resources to mature the site across the four-tier model: reactive, preventive, predictive, and RCM

• Lead, develop, and hold accountable 4 Team Leaders and the technician workforce across shifts A–D, setting priorities and resolving cross-shift conflicts
• Develop the technician bench with the Maintenance Trainer — own the skills matrix, training plan, and succession planning across the maintenance organization
• Translate the site’s 24‑month maintenance roadmap into department-level goals, staffing plans, and daily execution

• Own safety performance within maintenance — LOTO, machine guarding, confined space, arc flash, and hot work — and lead incident investigations through to closure
• Ensure all work meets GMP, HACCP, allergen-changeover, and SQF requirements; own food‑grade lubricants, no‑loose‑hardware discipline, and post‑repair sanitation sign‑off
• Own the performance, upkeep, and regulatory compliance of refrigeration systems and facility/building infrastructure, including ammonia and refrigerant regulations [and PSM/RMP program elements] and applicable building codes

• Review and commit to the weekly maintenance schedule developed by the Maintenance Planner, who reports to the Director of Maintenance and Engineering — validate priorities, assign crew capacity, and protect PM windows around the bake schedule
• Partner with Production on changeovers, sanitation windows, and holiday bake ramps
• Drive CMMS adoption and data integrity across the department to support KPI reporting and planning decisions

• Manage the maintenance department budget — labor, contractor spend, and parts/MRO inventory — and provide input on capital projects
• Own contractor and vendor relationships supporting maintenance execution, including scope, performance, and cost management
• Own maintenance, inspection, and compliance for site fleet assets — powered industrial trucks, yard equipment, and [delivery vehicles] — including operator inspection programs, OSHA PIT and applicable DOT requirements, service contracts, and replace‑versus‑repair decisions.

• 10+ years of industrial maintenance experience, including 5+ years in a maintenance management role
• Proven track record owning…
